I believe this book was spiritually inspired by the original anonymous author. As I read her handwritten words, it was as though she was whispering them in my ears. I was imaging her words in my mind and feeling her emotions. This is why I put her actual handwritten words as she wrote them on one side of the page and the typed portion next to it. See if you hear her whispering in your ear as you read her handwritten words, and do you experience any of her emotions? I believe her name was Barbara, and she was affected by WWII as was my father's second wife. If you experience any whispering or emotions, please let me know. Also, if you feel a cool breeze as you read, it could be the north wind.When the "power of love"OvercomesThe "love of power"The world will be at peace--Sri Chinmoy (Indian spiritual leader)I believe Barbara was trying to find a love relation to replace the love who I believe perished in WWII. We all need love in our lives. When we lose someone close to us, it is a very traumatizing event. I lost a son of sixteen years. You can never replace or forget. You live with it as long as you live.

This book is a memorial to C. W. Bynum. He was a passionate lifelong arrowhead hunter and collector. His plan was for himself and Barbara to write the book together during their retirement. This book documents three collections. First, a pictorial display of some of his collection, then a section of poetry mostly by Barbara, and finally a documentation of a collection of old-time herbal remedies. CW was a masonry instructor at Wallace College, and he would ask his students to get remedies from the old folks they knew he loved reading them and wanted them included in the book. So much knowledge about the arrowheads in this book was lost when CW died, but the points remain as a reminder of him to his family. This book was written so that the author and whoever else is interested can remember the feeling of walking in the Alabama fields after a rain with a beloved companion looking for treasure. It was a good journey.

Die Ikone der französisch-deutschen Verständigung erzählt aus ihren Leben.Zum 20. Todestag der Sängerin (24. 11. 2017) erscheinen ihre Memoiren erstmals in deutscher Sprache.Barbara wollte als Kind nur eines: singen. Sie begann ein Gesangsstudium, tingelte in Brüssel und Paris durch die Clubs zunächst mit Chansons u. a. von Jacques Brel und Georges Brassens. Der Durchbruch gelang erst, als sie ihre Lieder selbst komponierte - fortan füllte sie die großen Konzertsäle weltweit. Mit ihrem Lied »Göttingen« schuf sie eine Hymne für die deutsch-französische Verständigung, die bis heute nachwirkt.Auf der Bühne überließ Barbara keine auch noch so kleine Geste dem Zufall. Ihre Erinnerungen - angefangen bei einer zum Teil traumatischen Kindheit über Begegnungen in der Künstlerszene bis zu ihrem Aufstieg zur Grande Dame des Chansons - hingegen bestechen gerade durch das spontan Aufgeschriebene, durch das Authentische, Unmittelbare. Der pointierte und auch poetische Stil erlaubt es, mit wenigen Strichen ein wahres Künstlerleben zu evozieren. Ihre Memoiren begann sie 1997 zu schreiben - sie blieben unvollendet.

How well are the psalms understood? The parables seem more accessible, but are they? And as familiar as we are with the texts of the psalms and the parables, how open are we to new perspectives on them?The studies in Like a Tree Planted, the first volume in the Connections series, encourage readers to deepen their understanding of the psalms and parables and to grow in their relationship with God. Like a Tree Planted invites reflection on eight pairs of psalms and parables by highlighting their shared metaphor. These images, familiar from our everyday lives as well as from both testaments, encourage fresh insights from familiar scriptural texts.The psalms presented here, all from the first book of the Psalter, and the parables, selected from Luke's Gospel, speak deeply and collaboratively through figures of the tree, our stature and status, searching faces, feelings of entitlement and responsiveness, the ecosystem, shepherding, the storehouse, and "the other side."An introductory chapter in Like a Tree Planted introduces readers to the process of reading metaphorically, and a concluding chapter draws implications from the reading of these particular psalm and parable texts as a set.

Questioning how readers construct meaning, this work focuses on the character Jonah and explores the variety of ways in which the prophet and the book have been represented and understood by various interpreters.

Who should lead us? Who should we, as a community, look to for guidance? These questions followed the Israelite community upon their return from the Exile: Should they return with Davidic kingship or without it? Their answer was King Saul. Reading Israel's first king as a riddle or the epitome of Israel's experience with kingship, King Saul's Asking explores the characterization of the figure Saul, the question of the apparent silence of God, the multiple complexities of responsibility for kingship, and the readers' opportunities for transformation. It is not only an in-depth character study but also an interesting, insightful read, and opportunity for transformation.
